Where am I?

Why is it so dark?

Am I still alive?

Allen, who was still conscious, felt the endless gloom and darkness around him. He wasn't sure if he was still alive, and he slowly asked questions.

Wouldn't it be better if he died?

Anyway, Sister Anne is gone, so I'll go and accompany her.

What's the point of being alive?

Sister Anne is gone, and I don't want to live anymore...

In the remnants of consciousness, Eren was filled with endless frustration. On the one hand, because of the death of Anne's sister, and on the other hand, because of the disappointment of the Most High God.

Five years ago, Alan met Father Tobias by chance at the Demon Academy. Inexplicably, he was stuffed with a "True Love Book".

At that time, he felt that there was a mysterious connection with the sky in the dark...

During this period, in negotiations with the invasion of demons. Father Tobias has been expounding on his bishop and has made some witty statements.

When Allen was revered as Emperor of the Aegean Empire, Father Tobias's words greatly influenced his blueprints. At the same time, he also felt that it made sense.

It wasn't until Alan and Anne broke into the Netherworld that they discovered the existence of the Supreme God. His existence is much higher than what Father Tobias called 'Divine Lord', but there are some similarities.

So much so that at that time, Allen completely accepted the belief in the supreme god...

With their initial enthusiasm, Alan and Anne were given the task of going to a higher plane to carry out the will of the Most High God. And experience after experience proves that the favor of the Most High God has always been there.

However, while the two were obsessed with carrying out their mission, they were hunted down by the gods with all their might. The betrayal and deception of the main gods again and again made Allen have a wrong idea of the belief in the supreme god.

But he did not give up, and still believed in the protection of the Most High God...

At the last moment, in the face of the pursuit of the main gods of the god realm, Alan chose to rely on the supreme god. Traveling to the abyss of the universe, I consciously felt that that was the will of the Most High God.

However, it backfired.

When Eren swore to lead Anne and the gods to the abyss of the universe, after a war of words, he found that the Supreme God did not appear as expected.

He's starting to panic...

Is your heart not sincere enough?

Alan tried everything he could, only to find that it wasn't as he imagined...

The salvation and judgment of the Most High God has not come...

Now, it has ended up with an uncertain end...

Recalling the bits and pieces of the past, Allen's heart ached inexplicably. What he has been insisting on has hurt Sister Anne.

The girl who once followed behind her silently without regrets, Alan felt that she had failed her heart...

Is there any reason in this world?

Is the so-called 'supreme god' true or false?

Is everything you have experienced and the facts you have seen true?

Why did two people who had never committed a serious sin suffer such an end?

Oh God, you're so unfair!!

In his mind, Alan's thoughts were disorganized. Thinking about the once simple persistence and yearning, but it was hit by reality.

Those who did not make mistakes were brutally killed. People who make mistakes often get away with it...

Not...

It was at this time that Alan felt the sensation of his body. After repair, the body still has a painful feeling. It's like recovering from a serious illness, and I have no strength.

Opening his tired eyes, a glimmer of light fell on Allen's pupils, and he hurriedly reached out to cover his eyes, and only after a short recovery was he able to carefully examine the surrounding environment.

It is a dense and verdant forest with lush foliage that blocks out large areas of sunlight. In the grass on the ground, three or two small beasts gnawed at Alan's heels.

"Go, go!" Alan hurriedly drove away the little beast at his feet, and found that he could actually speak normally. It's just that his voice has become hoarse, probably caused by the battle with Ares, the god of war.

Alan, who was weak all over, slowly got up from the ground with his hands on the trunk. I took a breath of fresh air and knew I was alive.

I shook my hand and found that I had gone to all the meridians. The original abundant magical energy is now all away from him.

He didn't know how he had escaped it, or how he had been healed...

Suddenly, he thought of the Most High God again. Raising his face, he said to the sky, "Is that you?"

Alan was full of thoughts, pointed to the sky and became angry: "If it is you, why did you ignore me on the battlefield?

"You ordered us to go to the Realm of the Gods? You asked us to carry out your mission, and you helped us level up?"

"But why!!!Why !!?"

"Woooooo God, there is no justice and no justice... I don't understand... Why did you want Sister Anne to die in front of me... Even if I let go first..."

Allen's heart was heartbroken, like a pair of very good brothers, who were suddenly betrayed by their brothers one day, and completely entered into incomprehension.

The body, which had just barely supported itself, sat down again, and Alan could not accept such a heavy blow. Although in terms of magical age, he is already a thousand years old. But the actual mental age is only seventeen or eighteen years old.

The departure of a lover is the most cruel thing in the world. There is no remedy other than endless complaining and grief.

This may be the reason for what he called 'the injustice of heaven'.

'Crackling-'

Strange to say, along with the change in Allen's mood, suddenly a strong wind rose in the sky, and thunder and lightning resounded in the sky.

The pouring rain hit Allen's childish face, as if in an instant, he was much older. Reluctantly got up from the grass and walked forward.

I didn't have the heart to take care of the surrounding environment, and I didn't care about the area where I was located. Alan's brain went blank, like a walking corpse...

Why...

Why the hell is that...

The despair in the heart is not experienced by anyone or anything. Sister Anne, who was once empathetic, has now left herself, leaving her alone in the world.

At that time, the royal family and nobles of the entire Aegean Empire were united against the union of Allen and Anne. In pursuit of love, the two fled to the Divine Netherworld.

Today, he has left his homeland. Leaving behind his parents, friends, and empire, he thought that the only remaining property was his love with Anne's sister, and at this time he had nothing.

Alan raised his resolute forehead and looked at the blue sky above him. Suddenly, I found that the environment here is somewhat similar to the phantom world. And the place where he is like a fertile forest in the phantom realm.

Alan remembered the situation when he jumped off the Abyssal Spirit Cliff: he jumped and abandoned the world and his entire career.

Isn't my current self exactly the same as I was at the beginning?

The only difference is that I was not understood by the whole world at that time, and I don't understand the whole world now...

Alan suddenly felt that there was no point in it...

Walking and walking, Alan once again came to the top of a cliff, and the endless abyss was pouring out the state of mind of the miserable.

Jump!

Suddenly, a subtle voice came to mind in the depths of my mind. Alan didn't know where it came from, or if it was a sound...

Jump!

The 'voice' reappeared, as if it was more intense than the previous one.

Jump down!!

This time, Alan felt that the 'voice' seemed to be someone talking to him in his heart, but he was not sure if it was true.

And this 'voice' just fits Allen's thoughts at this time. Step on the edge of the cliff and slide the stones into the abyss...

Why don't you go to Sister Anne and be together forever.

A thought appeared in Allen's heart again, and he was closer to the steps of the abyss. Close your eyes, take one last breath of the fresh air of this world, and prepare to jump off the cliff in depth.

'Don't-'

Suddenly, a voice rang out behind Alan. When I looked back, I found that it was Sister Anne standing not far away. But the body is phantom, not real.

"Sister Annie..."Allen couldn't help but shed tears when she saw her beloved again, and said, "Yes... Don't... I couldn't save you... It's all my fault..."

Allen's desperate heart contains a debt to Anne. I feel that a large part of the responsibility for Anne's death lies with myself.

If he hadn't gone his own way and sought refuge in the Seagod Domain, he wouldn't have encountered a desperate situation later...

If he hadn't sworn by himself and provoked the entire main god clan, he would not have been wildly pursued by the fire god Zhu Rong...

"Sister Annie... It's all my fault... I didn't protect you..."Allen's heart was full of remorse, but it didn't help.

Suddenly, the 'Sister Anne' on the other side showed a smiling face and said, "No, Brother Alan, I don't blame you. My only wish is for you to live well. ”

Alive...

What a cruel suggestion!

"But, but you're no longer there," Alan remembered the real truth, and realized that the 'Sister Anne' on the other side was nothing more than a phantom.

"Brother Allen, you're wrong. However, 'Annie' floated in front of Alan with a smile, leaned into his arms, and said, "Actually, I have always lived in your heart. ”

Buzz –

Annie's words made Alan, who was full of resentment and sadness in his heart, wake up in an instant. Shaking his head vigorously, the near-dead soul reawakened again.

Sister Anne is indeed gone...

But what's the use of blindly complaining about the unfairness of heaven?

Even if he jumped off the cliff at this time, it was impossible to really bring Sister Anne back to life...

To be alive is the only hope that man has...
